GeBIZ Procurement Procedure

The Department of Chemistry follows the University’s procedure for making purchases in a procedure known as GeBIZ Procurement. Basically, the item(s) to be purchased is keyed into the GeBIZ system for raising PO by GeBIZ General Users (GU).

(2) Procurement Procedure

Goods and services not exceeding the SVP limit of $5,000 can be purchased directly from the suppliers without having to call for quotations.

Purchases above $5,000 but not exceeding $100,000

For goods and services up to $100,000 in value, departments must call for quotation. A simplified quotation process requiring minimum 3 quotes can be adopted for purchases not exceeding $15,000. The quotation can be called manually or through the Government Electronic Business (GeBIZ) system, an integrated one stop e-procurement portal that allows GeBIZ registered suppliers (i.e. trading partners) to interact with the Government for its procurement activities.

For purchases above $15,000 but not exceeding $100,000, these should be procured via open quotation in GeBIZ Invitation-to-Quote module (also known as Self Service Buy). Departments can also purchase such goods and services from established period contracts via GeBIZ Catalogue Buy or Framework Agreement.

For purchases above $100,000

Tender must be called for purchases above $100,000 through the GeBIZ Invitation-to-Tender module or alternatively, purchased from period contracts in the Catalogue Buy or Framework Agreement. For tenders, contact Mr. Chionh.
